You are only 1 county short of forming Kingdom of Bulgaria, and you can Holy War Wallachia and other nearby Tengri rulers to expand the empire. The only bad thing is they might convert to Catholics in the middle of the war.Ĥ. You are surrounded by Slavic and Romuva rulers, so you can easily Holy War them to death and form Wendish Empire.
Kinda similar to Iberian Kings, but with a little less politics. I particularly like Tuscany (Matilda di Canossa) because she always has awesome stats. You are also located in the middle of the map, so you can easily join Crusades/Jihad to add more territory. Some of them are only a few golds and prestige short from forming the Kingdom. Independence is not a must, you can form your own Kingdom and stay under HRE protection. You can form Kingdom of Aquitaine after then.Ģ. Try to gain independence from France at the right time: when France is attacked (usually by HRE) or when there is a big revolt. You start with more than half of Aquitaine Kingdom de jure. I will just give more alternatives for beginner start:ġ. I definitely agree that these are great starts for beginner and your game won't be as boring as Ireland. Because you expand with holy wars, you can also get the vassals you want, and thus you don't have to deal with strong vassals that can threaten you in for example the Byzantine Empire, HRE etc.Įveryone else has recommended Castile and any other Catholic Kings in Iberia. This means you can learn the ropes(intrigue, pressing claims for landed claimants, keeping vassals weak etc), while you have fun with the holy wars. That way you can start with holy wars at first, so you don't have to wait for claim fabrication, or having to find claimants to land. Easy Holy war expansion.ģ: You get both the Holy war expansion, and also the possibility to press claims. I learned the game that way, and found it a easy way to learn the game.įor example starting as Castille in 1066 is good to learn the game because:ġ: Strong nation that is isolated from the most dangerous countries.Ģ: Many weak muslim neigbours. As you said it was boring to play in Ireland, I would recommenced you to start a game as a small king in Scandinavia, Spain, Poland or something similar, and expand form there.
